For as long as I’ve known my parents -who are teachers by the way- it never occurred to me why they were always going for workshops. It was only when the gradual development of information technology started to penetrate the schools. You see, they were trained as chalkboard teachers in the 1970, so you can understand why it was important for them to participate in inset training for teachers.
Skills Development
The world is developing at a fast pace, and so is technology. Rather than letting an education system and it’s staff lag behind at the expense of economic progress, it’s important for the education sector to invest in the future.
In-service training is a key focus area for most governments these days. Teachers who get regular skills development are better equipped to approach traditional problems with a modern touch.
